wiii*,^ nuirking. The size at once distinguishes the present species, as 

 it hiis more than twice the alar expanse.

 does not fully agree wnth m}" specimen and especially as Chambers's 

 species has only an expanse of 7 lines = 15-16 mm.

 doubt about their identity with this species, as determined by Lord 

 Walsingham with some hesitation.
